For most Prius model years, Toyota recommends the following general guidelines (always consult your Toyota Owner’s Manual or contact our dealership for specifics related to your model and year):
- Every 5,000 miles: Rotate tires, perform multi-point inspection, check and adjust fluid levels, inspect brake lines/hoses, and visually inspect brake linings/drums and pads/discs.
- Every 10,000 miles: Replace engine oil and filter (if not using synthetic, follow the interval recommended for your specific engine oil type); inspect wiper blades and replace as needed.
- Every 15,000 miles: Inspect the cabin air filter; replace if needed. Inspect ball joints and dust covers.
- Every 30,000 miles: Replace engine and cabin air filters; inspect the fuel system and lines. For hybrid models, periodic checks of the hybrid cooling system and inverter coolant are crucial.
- Every 60,000 miles: Replace spark plugs; inspect the drive belts and all hybrid system components.
- Every 100,000 miles: If applicable, inspect or replace transmission fluid, perform major coolant flush, and conduct comprehensive safety system evaluation.
